The expression of programmed death-ligand 1 and its association with histopathological grade, stage of disease, and occurrence of metastasis in breast cancer

Abstract: INTRODUCTION: Programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1) plays a role in tumor escape and progression by inactivating T lymphocytes. The aim of the study reported here was to determine the relationship between the expression of PD-L1 and histopathological grade, stage of disease, and the occurrence of metastasis in breast cancer. METHODS: The observational cross-sectional study involved analyzing the expression of PD-L1 by immunohistochemistry. RESULTS: PD-LI was expressed in 43 of 60 patients with breast cancer (71.6%… Show more

“…Programmed death ligand 1 ( PD-L1 ), also known as CD274, is activated by its receptor, programmed death 1 (PD-1, CD279), which is found on the cell surface of T cells, B cells, and dendritic cells [ 8 , 9 ]. PD-L1 may react directly to integrin receptors, activating intracellular signaling pathways such as the AKT/GSK3 pathway, increasing cells’ propensity to migrate and invade [ 8 ].…”
